Just what I expected.

A big zero. You should have your list handy.

Here's my off the cuff analysis :

Spending to the tune of 24.5 % of GDP.
Tossing Mubarak under the bus.
Alienating every ally in the ME.
Growing Government while shrinking the private sector... He has added 230,000 Gov jobs and managed to unemploy 8 million from the private sector.
Blew $860 mill and promised unemployment would stay under 8%... its now over 10... closer to 20% here in Ca.
Past Obamacare and managed to raise health care premiums for all while not even understanding what was in the bill he signed.
A sure sign that he doesnt have a clue.. How can you expect lower costs by adding another layer bureaucracy between the Doctor and patient ?
His Afghanistan policy has been an illustration of what happens when half measures are used during a time of war.
Announcing a withdrawal date will be the highlight of his presidency....
Right after his Libya war. Announcing it as a humanitarian venture while Iran and Syria slaughter their people in the street.

I could go on but you should do your own analysis right after the chill down your leg stops.

Even you should understand that a large gov payroll equated to large unemployment in the private sector.

Of course I might be giving you to much credit since you have no problem spending other peoples money.
